Lavender in makeup: Another reception from the 2000s at the height of fashion
Next spring predict the next revival of pastel shades in make-up - and some colors have already become leaders. First, peach tones conquered everyone, then pink was declared the king of the season, and the last stars showed that purple was the best color for a fantastic make-up. We tell how lavender fell in love with celebrities and the Internet and where to look for those very shades of shadows, pencils and highlighters.
How it started
Pastel shades in make-up are frequent guests on the catwalks of spring-summer fashion weeks. Moreover, they have long been mastered by the beauty community on the Internet - they come from the kingdom of glitter and mermaid coloration, of course; The theme of unicorns and other fantastic escapism in make-up is reinvented almost every month. This fall, fifty shades of pink and holographic play are inferior to the "magic" shades of purple and lavender. Another nostalgic twist influenced a lot: in the 2017 fashion, the repetitive “grim” trends of the 90s were replaced by carefree paraphernalia of the 2000s - and make-up is unlikely to be an exception. If you have long missed leopard fur coats and sweaters with lurex, you may not be afraid of the lilac nacre on your eyes. Moreover, it can be interpreted with the participation of modern tools and techniques.
As in nine cases out of ten, Rihanna became a trendsetter; at the height of the launch of Fenty Beauty, she walked different versions of the original make-up: everyone remembered drayping in violet tones, made with the Match Stix highlighter in the Unicorn shade. Then, with an elegant make-up of eyes in bright lavender shades, Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato appeared at the InStyle Awards ceremony. The first chose the shining classical form of the Smokey, and the second showed a complex and very beautiful stretch of pure colors, matched to the color of pastel. We suggest not to wait for spring, but to start exploring exciting shades right now - each of these make-ups claims to be the perfect image for New Year's parties.
